| Long abstract | This chapter reviews 10 women writers, 1776-1848, from Austria, Croatia, Czechia, Hungary, and Slovenia. It thus covers five emergent languages, as nationalism begins to take shape in the Habsburg territories, contributing directly to the empire’s end a century later. Writers express different degrees of loyalty to the empire and to their own nation, engaging in a variety of ways with the concept of the people’s voice. A variety of genres are here represented, from lyric poetry to theatre to a variety of prose genres. |
